cisco E1aminer on last Saturday pub.
lished highly sensational article about
the smallpox in Los Angeles. The worst
feature about thegarticle was that it was
false nearly from the beginning to the
end; and still worse, the Examiner had
every opportunity for knowing that it
was false, as the Los Angeles dailies
published regularly the report Of the
Board Of Health and the Mayors official
statement concerning the disease. The
article was evidently the result of bit.
ter jealousy over this sections wonderful
prosperity. The fact that but three
or fouadeaths in population of nearly
so, 600 have occurred, ought to be suf-
ficient evidence to any newspaper man
of common sense that there was nothing
very dreadful about the disease, even
though there were thousands of cases.
The diphtheria alone, which has been
epidemic in San Francisco for some time
past, has carried off twenty persons
where smallpox ha taken one, yet the
Examiner never published any very sen.
sational articles about it. Such articles
as that in the Examiner are unworthy
of paper that claims to be the leading
newspaper of the coast.
